Our History

The Cotlow Company was established in Arizona in 1981. Soon, as a result of considerable (and continuous) growth, the company became part of a number of international real estate networks, including Merrill Lynch Commercial Real Estate (U.S.), L.J. Hooker (Australia) and Lambert Smith Hampton (England).

Today, The Cotlow Company is based in Tucson, Arizona and remains wholly-owned by its founder, Dean P. Cotlow. The Cotlow Company is licensed in the State of Arizona (C0102162000)
